Time-Dependent Effects of Extraluminally-Applied Oxyhemoglobin and Endothelial Removal on Vasodilator Responses in Isolated, Perfused Canine Basilar Arteries
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effects of oxyhemoglobin (oxyHb) and removal of the endothelium have been measured in isolated, perfused canine basilar arteries treated with intraluminal vasodilator drugs. In preparations with an intact endothelium, acetylcholine (ACh) produces a biphasic response, where a small vasodilation precedes a vasoconstriction. Calcium ionophore A23187 and thimerosal induce a vasodilation at low doses and a biphasic response at high doses. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) evokes only a vasodilation. Extraluminally applied oxyHb itself produces a transient vasoconstriction and then a gradual increase in perfusion pressure. After this treatment, the vasoconstriction to ACh was enhanced as was the vasodilation to SNP. Significant attenuation of the vasodilator action of A23187 and thimerosal was also observed. Subsequent removal of endothelium produced no further change in response. This implies that the action of extraluminal oxyHb is to eliminate any endothelium-dependent responses. If cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage is initiated by hemoglobin released from the clot surrounding the artery, at least one component of its action appears to involve interference with endothelial function.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
